Quick overview

The Warpspeed integrates key shaping attributes from some of our most iconic series into a dedicated wide model. Built for the big guy that rides in a big way, these decks have a progressive sidecut and alpine camber profile that charges hard in a wide array of conditions.

The construction has been enhanced for 2018 with a new FSC® Certified Panda Core™, refined Forged Carbon Tips, and new Amplitex™ V-Tech Amplifiers that balance the power of carbon with the dampness of flax. Capita's custom carbon formulated Hyperdrive™ NC12 base features a new factory-direct Moonshot Pro-Tune™ race base structure, supercharging an already fast and powerful board that carves hard, floats in powder, and is ready to manhandle any terrain.

Details

PROFILE

  • Alpine V2 Profile

The alpine v2 profile design features mid-body camber with a flat tail and a reverse cambered nose. This allows for tons of pop and stability on hard pack while increasing float and landing power, improving the rider’s performance in deep snow. The camber runs longer in the tail on the WARPSPEED providing extra power for the larger riders drawn to a dedicated wide series.

  • Flat kick tech

With capita’s flat kick design technology, we’ve tightened the tip profile radius that blends the shoulders of the board into the tip and tail height on reverse camber boards. The tight tip radius in conjunction with tuned blend zones allows you to have a forgiving and easy to ride reverse camber board that is still responsive and quick during edge-to-edge transitions. This also creates a flat tip and tail which increases jibbing stability and also helps the board plane on top of powder creating float and control.

 

CORE

  • Panda core™

The panda core™ was built for a high performance return of energy in a lightweight and versatile core. From razor sharp turns on demand, to huge ollies, this core was engineered with all-terrain technical freestyle riding in mind. Comprised of our p2 superlight™ core and enhanced with inlaid bamboo power rods, this high-density core is strong enough to meet the needs of the all-terrain customer while saving considerable weight.

  • Magic Bean™ Resin

Developed over a three-year span, this all new resin system has a bio-content of 60% renewable, agricultural raw materials. It is plant based that does not compete with primary food sources and is produced with no waste or greenhouse emissions. In production, it has a low-temperature requirement with a high yield output. This resin system is poppy, powerful, and extremely durable. Magic bean™ resin yields much stronger and more rigid qualities allowing us to decrease the wood core thickness. Our focus is to save wood core weight by increasing resin performance. This means you get a lighter board while achieving higher energy return.

  • Forged carbon tips

Our friends at union binding company have worked with us to integrate their industry first forged carbon technology into multiple models for 2017. Lighter and stronger than titanium, forged carbon is the future of high-end, performance-based products. The spring break powder boards have completely redesigned forged carbon quad packs in the insert area of the blocked balsa surflite™ core, while the hard-charging wide series warpspeed features forged carbon in the tip and tail eliminating chatter through variable train.

  • Amplitex™ v-tech amplifier

These 30 mm Carbon Arcs are constructed utilizing an all new computer engineered carbon shaping process. After extensive lab work analyzing how a particular shape reacts to the dynamics of riding, each piece of pre-shaped and pre-laminated Carbon Fiber is made to exact standards that enhance the positive features of a particular board.

 

BASE

  • Hyperdrive™ nc12 base™

Custom formulated and exclusive to the mothership, our engineers have worked tirelessly with the world's leading polyethylene running base supplier to create hyperdrive™ nc12. With exceptional anti-friction properties due to high molecular mass and specialized processing aids, this sintered material has a custom carbon component and is beyond fast. Our loyal fans charge hard, and for 2017 and beyond we have integrated the fastest, meanest base available.

  • Moonshot pro-tune™ 

The moonshot pro-tune™ is an aftermarket high-performance race-base structure that wicks water from your base in 45-degree angles making these boards fast as f*#k to the lift line or to the finish line.

  • Multitech™ Sublimation + Die-cut Base

  • Titanal Base Inlay


TOPSHEET

  • Holysheet™ fiberglass

The all new holysheet™ fiberglass configuration features new fiber weaves with a high tensile strength and low modulus of elasticity. With a higher roving count in the same weight of glass, you can have a stronger and more responsive board without adding extra weight. Triaxial fiberglass is placed on top of the core and biaxial fiberglass beneath, creating a perfectly blended ride while increasing strength and durability. Combine this layup with the magic bean™ resin and one of the many additives we have available, and you get a high performing board tailored to meet your style of riding.

  • PLT Topsheet Technology™

The PLT™ machine sits in a secret hidden corner of the factory behind two very unassuming, nondescript metal doors. The PLT ™ is so secretive that with the exception of its inventor, Mr. Michi Kollmann, all visitors to the room must be versed in an ever-changing secret handshake. PLT™ technology is exclusive to CAPiTA MFG and magically bonds the topsheet to an already pressed snowboard. This is magical because the rest of the world mashes their topsheets on with glue, heat and pressure during the pressing stage. Doing so causes the fiberglass structure underneath to show through the topsheet. And because nobody wants to spend their hard earned cash on a bumpy snowboard, many companies slather their tops with a thick toxic lacquer to smooth things out. Not only is that shit HEAVY and can potentially develop unsightly hairline cracks, it’s also really unhealthy for the working environment. The PLT™ machine produces a featherlight, smooth, high-gloss finish, without all that poisonous deadweight.

SIDEWALL

  • Progressive

A progressive sidecut consists of two or more radii blended together to accommodate the three stages of a turn. They provide easy turn initiation while offering greater control throughout the turn and maximum power when exiting.
